Whether it’s out to dinner with friends or at home around the table with family, on a romantic date with a partner or at a cocktail hour with coworkers, we have all experienced phubbing. In case you haven’t heard of the term before, phubbing (phone snubbing) is when someone ignores their real-life companions in favor of their phones or devices. A 2015 study found that 46.3 percent of its participants admitted to being regularly phone snubbed by their loved ones. What’s more, 22.6 percent said it caused serious issues in their personal relationships.
One thing is clear: It’s time to put the phones down and have fun interacting with each other again, and a great place to start is at the dinner table.
